Describe the bug

(Accidentally) switching language locally to Greek (remote is still outputting US), leads to:

I am not expecting magic - at least, it would not be such a spammy behavior. (because of the layouts, and the kb complexities etc - while in client-gr/server-us mode, I cannot type w to the server)

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. server command
  2. client command
  3. specific action to trigger the bug

System Information (please complete the following information):

  • Server OS: Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS
  • Client OS: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18363.836]
  • Xpra Server Version: (see above)
  • Xpra Client Version: (see above)

Additional context Add any other context about the problem here. Please see "reporting bugs" in the wiki section.

I've changed this to log the message only once. I will probably regret this when someone complains that keys aren't working and the client log shows nothing unusual...

totaam avatar Jun 27 '24 02:06 totaam

Aaah ... I thought "it was solvable", eventually 😅

Yeah, "I think you will regret it". If that's the solution, you can revert it - it doesn't bother me that much

FYI: this is actually an improvement over the original pygobject behaviour (which was a hard crash!): https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/issues/3228#issuecomment-353543831

Maybe this will work: keyval_to_unicode. Applied in 8827968ef5acf6defabdb96176afa1a033951206. Does that help? (6.1-r36223 or later) If it doesn't, please run the client with -d keyboard so that we can see the keyval.

YES!

This is my output for en-us server, gr client

`1234567890-=;wertyuiop[]\asdfghjkl;'zxcvbnm,./  # plain keys
`1234567890-=;WERTYUIOP[]\AWDFGHJKL;'ZXCVBNM,./  # capslock keys
~!@#$%^&*()_+:ERTYUIOP{}|AWDFGHJKL:"ZXCVBNM<>?  # shift keys

You may notice that shift+w is missing. In Greek shift+w is the modifier that changes e.g. ι to ΐ. It is weird that the same does not happen with ;, shift+;; however, those two apply "different modifications" (ί and ϊ, respectively). I guess, since shift+w actually both modifications, it is more complicated 😅

We do have ofc, a LOT of warnings: (sadly, https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/commit/b47ff2dc53784d5ae1aedeeb4dc955a3681172b9 wasn't compiled 😢)

However, don't let my report change anything: It mostly works. I didn't expect this to be that easy after all 😅.

Thank you for not giving up ❤️

It even works in reverse (gr server, en-us client)

I've backported it to all supported branches (but not pushed yet to not overload the CI) - I just wished I had done that before releasing the final 3.1.8 LTS last night...

For git master, I even made it the default as I trust the API call that never crashed / does not raise UnicodeDecodeError. Warnings will only be logged if both API calls fail to give us a valid string for the key event.

You may notice...

I had not. TBH, I have no idea what works / doesn't work at this point - as I don't have any problems with the keyboard layouts that I test with. I guess it's too early to close this ticket?

"It has been an immerse improvement" since the previous version - so, I don't care 🙃 🚀

But of course there is this bug 😕

@stdedos Do you mean this one:

You may notice that shift+w is missing. In Greek shift+w is the modifier that changes e.g. ι to ΐ.

Or something else?
